[QUOTE=Tacooo;44456219]Oh wow, he put into words how I feel most of the time but could never explain. I hate social interactions because I always feel like people are judging me because I am constantly judging people myself, and so I assume people will think the same for me, for example: Someone is being loud and I can hear them speaking, I judge them thinking "Fuck he's so loud and annoying" but I also over hear something they say and then think "Wow, he really thinks that, what a fucking idiot" and then I get this voice saying "Don't be like that, be quiet, don't talk" and so I never talk and never speak loudly out of fear that someone will judge what I am saying or how I am acting making me extremely shy and causing me to mumble. When in actual fact I look worse being so quiet and talking so quietly that people cant understand me. No idea how to overcome it but this helped put stuff into perspective.[/QUOTE] totally me as well. When i feel like i hate something about someone else, its usually something i lack/put on myself to hate.
[QUOTE=HybridTheroy;44456167]Sometimes I'm led to believe I also have social anxiety. But then at other times I'm led to believe that everybody feels this way.[/QUOTE] Everyone has it to some degree.
[QUOTE=Episode;44455940]There's a huge difference between Anita and TAA. Everything Anita says is retarded horseshit, and sometimes TAA can make valid points.[/QUOTE] pls take your own advice and [QUOTE=Episode;44455707]Stop posting[/QUOTE] [editline]4th April 2014[/editline] also social anxiety sucks. especially if you have a job which requires you to pretend to be happy 24/7 to hungry customers
[QUOTE=Episode;44455940]There's a huge difference between Anita and TAA. Everything Anita says is retarded horseshit, and sometimes TAA can make valid points.[/QUOTE] if by valid you mean by thinking that rape victims are to blame for being raped, banana's work well as dildo's, and placing your junk in scalding oil then yeah this guy has a lot of valid points
I think everything people hate about TAA (his "edginess", his not caring about whether he offends anyone, etc.) is a sort of rebound effect of him trying to deal with his own social anxiety. He feels like the only way to get over it is to prove that he doesn't care what anyone else thinks, and that becomes "I don't care who I offend" and that leads to stuff like the aforementioned "trigger" incident. I sort of feel bad for him.
[QUOTE=Kai-ryuu;44456294]banana's work well as dildo's[/QUOTE] Don't you think that maybe laughing at him for this only makes sexuality more of a taboo?

[QUOTE=Rubs10;44456378]Don't you think that maybe laughing at him for this only makes sexuality more of a taboo?[/QUOTE] Ok shutup people aren't laughing at the dude because of his sexuality we are laughing at him because he used a fucking banana, the comedic fruit.

[QUOTE=HybridTheroy;44456418]Ok shutup people aren't laughing at the dude because of his sexuality we are laughing at him because he used a fucking banana, the comedic fruit.[/QUOTE] Aren't men mocked for using any kind of sex toy though? I find it hard to believe that it's [I]just[/I] because he uses bananas.
[QUOTE=Rubs10;44456530]Aren't men mocked for using any kind of sex toy though? I find it hard to believe that it's [I]just[/I] because he uses bananas.[/QUOTE] of course not
[QUOTE=Rubs10;44456530]Aren't men mocked for using any kind of sex toy though? I find it hard to believe that it's [I]just[/I] because he uses bananas.[/QUOTE] Nah honestly I don't think I'd give a shit if I found out he uses dildos but a banana is p funny
[QUOTE=Rubs10;44456530]Aren't men mocked for using any kind of sex toy though? I find it hard to believe that it's [I]just[/I] because he uses bananas.[/QUOTE] It's funny because the banana is the atheists nightmare
Honestly, social anxiety probably has a million better advocates than TAA, if for nothing else than his attitude towards other people who suffer from mental issues (incl. rape victims): [img]http://37.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mbtnt741Gc1qdc32wo1_1280.jpg[/img] [quote=TAA in his e-book]Rape isn't fatal. So imagine my indignation when I saw a chatroom called "Rape Survivors." Is this supposed to impress me? Someone fucked you when you didn't want to be fucked and you're amazed that you survived? Unless he used a chainsaw instead of his dick, what's the big deal? ... The word survivor applies to people who are alive after being stabbed 73 times with an ice pick or mauled by rabid wolverines, not to a woman who gets dick when she doesn't want it. Just because you got raped, you have to rape the English language? You vindictive bitch! Also, don't you ever get tired of being the victim? How many failed relationships are you going to blame on a single violation of your personal space? [/quote] [img]http://i.imgur.com/v8q0J.png[/img] Note "terroja" was TAA's reddit account. Note that I didn't watch the video because there's no way I'm giving this guy youtube money.
how can anyone get through a video like this? b/w footage of a guy who is out of focus talking with a lisp with no background knowledge or information on what is a pretty mundane subject matter anyway. who can care enough to watch 8 minutes of that
[QUOTE=HybridTheroy;44456418]Ok shutup people aren't laughing at the dude because of his sexuality we are laughing at him because he used a fucking banana, the comedic fruit.[/QUOTE] i was laughing because it reminded me of his tiny golfball dick

I bet if somebody he actually cared about was raped he'd change his tune real quick [editline]5th April 2014[/editline] I don't understand how anybody can take somebody with such backwards opinions serious
Am I crazy or did the title not always say Banana One of the mods being cheeky??

[QUOTE=milkandcooki;44464627]he thinks that triggers and rape don't matter because hurr durr stop being a pussy. so basically he's a fucking scumbag who only cares about his own fat white ass.[/QUOTE] I don't like TAA, but this happened a while ago, and he never mentioned anything of the sort in any of his videos, so really you're clinging to something that's no longer relevant, instead of pointing back to the whole reddit thing, you might want to actually respond to what he says in his videos. Or better, not post TAA videos.
